Lil Nas X Addresses His Arrest Before Release from Jail, Assuring Supporters: "Your Girl is Going to be Alright, Everyone"
In a surprising turn of events, rapper Lil Nas X, whose real name is Montero Hill, found himself in legal trouble this week. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) responded to calls and complaints early Thursday morning about a nude man acting erratically on the street in Studio City.
TMZ released footage showing Lil Nas X wandering the streets in underwear and cowboy boots, and a subsequent video showed him fully nude, rapping the lyrics to Nicki Minaj's verse from "Monster." The LAPD arrested him on the spot, alleging that he assaulted officers during the incident.
Lil Nas X was charged with three counts of battery against a police officer and one count of resisting an executive officer. He was held at a Van Nuys jail over the weekend before being arraigned on Monday morning. At his arraignment, the artist pleaded not guilty.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney, Nathan J. Hochman, issued a statement regarding the incident. He stated that attacking police officers is a direct threat to public safety and anyone who assaults law enforcement will face serious consequences.
Bail for Lil Nas X was set at $75,000. The artist took to his Instagram Stories to address his arrest, stating "Your girl is going to be OK y'all. OK? She's going to be alright, she's going to be alright." However, no further details about the alleged assault or the potential overdose were provided in the article.
The case will move to pretrial on September 15. It is not clear if Lil Nas X was under the influence of drugs at the time of the incident, but the implication is that he may have been given the mention of a potential overdose.
This statement implies that Lil Nas X's actions are considered a serious offense, and if convicted, he faces up to five years in prison. The name of the person accused of allegedly violent actions against police officers and acquitted of four crime charges is not provided in the available search results.
Lil Nas X has yet to comment further on the incident, but this arrest has certainly shaken the music industry and his fans. The artist's career will likely be under scrutiny as the case progresses.
